In the U.S., 4.5 million living women report having been threatened with a gun by an intimate partner. The presence of a gun during an intimate partner dispute makes it 5 times more likely that the woman will be killed. It is clear that ending intimate partner violence is a crucial step in the fight to ending gun violence.
Join us as we discuss the important work happening to address the intersection of intimate partner violence and gun violence. Community Justice remains committed to calling on leaders to step up and understand the root causes of intimate partner violence, treat it as a public health issue, and invest in community solutions that empower and support survivors and their communities before gun violence occurs.
SIGN UP HERE [[link removed]]I can’t wait to see you there!
In solidarity,
Thia’a Rahman
States Advocacy Manager
